Brock Lesnar is better known as a UFC fighter than a WWE wrestler here in Mexico.

Funny how WWE is kissing the ass of the guy that left the company for football years ago.

Well, that's being kind of short-sighted, no? I mean, sure, he left for the NFL but he also went to UFC to become the heavyweight champion & main event PPV's that received 1-million buys. Seeing as how UFC is a contact sport & WWE is still in the business of Pay-Per-View, it makes sense, no?

They would probably have to pay him insane amounts of money to get him to appear fairly often. He's already a rich man, hates travelling and loves being at his home out in the sticks just doing what he feels like. The guy doesn't even have Internet access at home, which is pretty telling how little he cares about being in touch with things.

What we know is that Vince has lost it and is desperate because he doesn't have any legit stars left on his roster. It was confirmed that Lesnar makes 5 million for 35 appearance just like The Rock was paid the same amount he did in his first film to face Cena at Mania which was 5 million. You say nobody knows how much money each guy makes for Vince? Easy. Just look at the crowd. How many Lesnar shirts to you see? None! Here's another fact for you. The PPV buys that WWE gets not all the money goes to them. They %40 to %50 goes to the PPV provider (Optimum, Dish, etc.) so PPV buys aren't exactly WWE's number one seller. The money is in Cena's shirts, Ryder's Band, Santino's Cobra & Rey & Cara's luchador mask. PPV is a dying business is a fact.

Brock Lesnar is old news, and he isn't the same wrestler he was before he left. Just showing up here, and there is worthless. Lesnar should come back full time, and stop whining like a little bitch.

I'm up for more of Lesnar if the contract means for more appearances per episode, and maybe something like 5 or 6 PPV appearances. His feuds are good if you watch them with the recaps cut out, but stretched over several months and multiple vacant PPV's they suffered.

Lesnar is a pretty confusing guy...unless it's just about the money and not principle and he'll take peeks into the WWE if paid enough. I remember seeing a vid on youtube where he considers himself Brock Lesnar the UFC fighter and not Brock Lesnar the WWE wrestler. From what I've seen he doesn't really have any true interest in being a part of the WWE roster again. Unless he's just a hypocrite.

Brock defintely should re sign he makes WWE big again
